    Whatever happened to the art of shoving an extra pair of socks down your trolleys?

    if they do it right, it can be useful for running. running underpants have a little cubby for the balls.

    Isnt this the opposite of what you want? For me its so annoying when the package is very much visable through my clothing. I also hate when my hoodie or pants fold in my crotch area.

      No. We want support so our balls don’t slosh around And showing off our package in tight pants is a bonus

        Heh. But actually i think its more related to ball size and how it rests naturally. While i have an average sized implement, it likes to rest on the royal jewel cushion so its quite pronounced compared to the size. There is zero tuckability, which i wished i had sometimes cause it can look like im having a wood while its in a complete resting state.

      Kids in hs made fun of each other over this relentlessly. Its why so many boys wore long shirts, to cover it up.

    A padded bra but for cock. I feel like these could be highly inappropriate to wear in certain situations.

    I can’t help but think this would only make things worse for someone insecure about their size because now it’s giving potential partners a false sense of reality that will be exposed the second they come off. It also seems weird because this isn’t the 1980s where “nut hugger” jeans are popular either.

      That’s why I want more than a “subtle lift.” I want a massive, exaggerated, cartoonishly unrealistic lift.

      If anything I would think pressing it up against the fabric would give a very very clear “impression” of their average size.

        Only if you walk around erect all day. But yeah I don’t know why anyone would want this. I got really self conscious about wearing certain shorts because an ex told me my nuts would often show a buldge the way they fit. Never wanted to wear them again, was really hoping no one else noticed such, but who knows

            The tone/context she said it in indicated she thought it was intentional with a hint of jealousy. So depends on the take I guess. Either way it was a lose lose situation for me and possibly something I should have seen as a red flag and not something to overly analyze… Says the guy who is still desiphering how I should have absorbed that information 14 years later

    I advised a friend once that to get the ladies he should put a potato in his bathing suit. He came back after a day at the beach and said it didn’t work. Turned out he got the instructions wrong; he put the potato in the back not the front.

      I accidentally did this recently.

      What I simply said was for her “not to have expectations”. What I meant was that I didn’t want to have sex on our first night together.

      She was very happy to discover my penis is above average.

    Another product that - like butt/ab implants and muscle filters for your social media - is designed to make you feel insecure.

    It’s the cultivation of false needs via generating artificial insecurities. That’s what Capitalism often uses to sell you things.

    Don’t buy a pee pee platter, just be more confident in who you are and what you can do.

    Also, wow, The Guardian is running downhill huh? Chasing ad bucks rather than the news.
